The river is overflowin
The storms are brewin on and on
There is no telling how high the rise will be going
Soon we’ll all be swimming in the North Saskatchewan
The river is overflowin
Bodies floatin beside evergreen trees
Not a livin soul in those murky muddy pools
The river of the damned flows through the heart of the city
The river is overflowin
The city’s cemetery’s on the move
They’ll all be found on the island of the dead real soon
Instead of lying still in some unlit room
The river is overflowin
Oh how it glistens in the sun
But don’t get to close, and never jump in
You never know what might be hiding in the North Saskatchewan
